🚹 Crypto deepfake love trap ring busted!

Hong Kong police have just arrested a group of scammers who use deepfakes to impersonate beautiful women, setting up "love traps" to make men who have "loved through the screen" fall into the trap. As a result, they were lured into investing in fake crypto projects, losing a total of $46M!

27 suspects were arrested, including university graduates and several members of the Sun Yee On Triad - a notorious criminal organization with all kinds of tricks from fraud to money laundering.

In the era of rapidly developing AI, the scams are no less sophisticated, hitting the two fatal weaknesses of men: greed and loneliness 😂
